: Legal JuiceReally? You're Firing Me For Calling The Cops On A Shoplifter?
By John Mesirow
Former Home Depot employee Michael Boyer probably couldn't believe it either. As reported in The Detroit News:
"It sounds crazy but he was not fired for confronting or physically restraining a customer. He was terminated for involving professionals, the police, to catch someone with a shopping cart full of stolen goods," said Joey Niskar, Boyer's attorney.Yeah, crazy alright. Crazy like... really stupid! Mr. Boyer has filed suit under the Michigan Whistleblower Protection Act. A sorry example of the aphorism that "no good deed goes unpunished." Damn you Home Depot!
